Great stuff with the morning coffee
Danger and death were commonplace. At Barker's Mill Pond one of Bir-ney's brigadiers watched a Confederate artillery round land in a party of men bathing and washing their clothes. "The boys just looked around and continued to bathe and wash as though nothing had happened," he wrote home. "Such is war. So accustomed do we become to such scenes that we can brave danger to an extent almost incredible." Three miles north an officer eating lunch inspected a piece of bark and discovered that it was really a skull fragment covered with hair, blood, and maggots. "They're at dinner, too," he remarked as he finished his meal. "Thus does soldiering make the stomachs of men imper-turbable." A newspaperman riding behind Hancock's and Wright's lines was surprised at how immune the soldiers had become to their exposure to death. "In the third line of breastworks, where shells were liable to alight any moment, and in the second, where musket balls were intruding themselves constantly, men were writing letters, playing cards, cooking meals or eating them, doing anything and everything that men would do anywhere else, and doing it with a sang froid that was delightful."68

Got a task done this weekend/morning I’ve been putting off for so long, and it was not hard. Didn’t even take long. Procrastination is a disease.

My favorite American History “what if” is if James Garfield wasn’t shot three months into his presidency. He was such a profound thinker and had such great civil and social values. I think he would have served from 80-88 for sure and could have delivered more practical reform in

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Ulysses S Grant on the NOT ONLY the separation of church and state, BUT ALSO the critical importance of NON SECTARIAN PUBLIC EDUCATION.
- speech in 1875
(I’m sure I’m driving my wife crazy but the Grant audiobook is too good to not blast in the garage)
